Korean performances non-existent

The 63rd event is faced with controversy over the non-existence of acts from South Korea[16] In one source, it is suspected that government-funded NHK avoided inviting Korean acts because of the territorial disputes over Liancourt Rocks between the South Korean and Japanese governments. Sports Chosun reported on a statement made by an NHK representative. "The fact that President Lee Myung Bak has demanded an apology is a great factor. After this incident occurred, there have been more and more hallyu stars who have stated that 'Dokdo is ours.' Considering this, viewers might have ill feelings about the K-pop stars appearing," said the NHK representative.[17]

gollark: I mean, I *might* also want stuff like that - getting mentions in messages - but much else.
gollark: Anything else is useless annoying overhead I'd have to cut through to hook up my own command parsing.
gollark: What I'd want out of a discord library is basically just send message, receive message.
gollark: ^
gollark: Yes, I like that more.
